Which plane gives a deep, scrub-planed texture?

The Veritas scrub plane has a fairly gentle camber, so the marks it leaves are not very deep. If you want a deeper scrub-planed texture with more pronounced flutes, there are two ways to go:

Use an ordinary plane, such as a Stanley No. 4, and grind the blade to the curve you want. Almost any inexpensive plane will do
Buy a wide flat blade for the Veritas combination plane, such as the 18 mm blade 05P51.48, and regrind it to a tighter radius

That way you decide for yourself how deep and pronounced the texture becomes.
